Steve helping out Eddie do some home maintenance at the trailer park. But shit, why does Eddie always have to bring up things that need fixing on days that end up being so goddamn hot?! It’s almost uncannny~

Haha I was going to say that I wasn't sure if I could see it 😉

#just bros being bros

Re. anon asks - I *did* say it was going to happen this morning, then I overslept and had to get dressed n ready for work in the car like that mr bean episode, got held up at work for an extra hour, then held up by (self-diagnosed) minor but recurring car troubles that definitely deserve way more attention than I’ve currently paid them (in every sense of the word ugh $$), got stuck at home arguing a credit charge for about 2 hours, and then got an email saying it was the 70th anniversary of the flatswood UFO sghting sooo went down that uplanned rabbit hole for a little and now here we are

Frustrated and wired and working on asks hooo boy

Still at it -  typing n banging away and making headway on something I don't find complete garbo

anyway! thats for me

Also I’m just deciding now

Wayne Munson is gay and autistic – I base this solely on 3 things – 1. his extensive, carefully displayed, collection of mugs and trucker caps, 2. the fact that he reminds me SO SO much of my, not diagnosed, but very very clearly autistic grandpa (RIP), and 3. my absolute need for him to be a gay elder to the party and Eddie’s grouchy & gruff, but secretly bigbig-heated softie, guncle

Tying into this - Eddie comes by his music genre obsessiveness honest and Wayne is a huge bluegrass & folk aficionado. His prized, ‘save in case of fire’, possession is his ‘Lavender Country’ vinyl, with the sleeve signed with little messages by the whole band

Also one day I’ll write something for my fav stranger things crack!ship - Murray/Wayne.

FatEddie coaching ChaserSteve on how to verbally tease him.

Eddie reassures him over and over that that’s what safe words are for and he won’t be mad or upset at a misstep, he’ll just let him know and they can redirect & learn from there. And honestly big boy, he can take the punishment

But Steve is such a Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy…that boy dotes on his lovers by reflex and playfully flirts like breathing, so it’s certainly a mental pivot and Steve is so nervous that he’ll hurt Eddie.

And it’s not that he’s not really into the idea (that’s not the issue at all) but he’s just so unsure how to go about it? Like?? What do?? How to berate his boy just right for both their mutual satisfaction? Especially when it’s Eddie’s body.

This would be exactly it though because Eddie knows he's a kinky a fuck and he actually thinks it's so cute that his lover boy is so norm-core and vanilla.

Steve probably says something like

"Can't believe how lucky I am you're into this, I was afraid you'd think I was some weirdo because I sort of have a kink..."

And Eddie just does all soft and doe-eyed.

"Stevie. Answer me truthfully. You don't think this is the only kink I have, do you?"

"...I don't really know about any others..."

Becoming the real life version of the 😈 emoji, "You wanna learn, pretty boy? Cause there's some stuff that when I'm in bed, and i think about you doing it...saying it...fuck, Stevie, I'm hard just thinking about it." He straddles Steve on some threadbare couch, pressing his bulk, his softness crushingly close to his boyfriend, he's hard, and he's radiating heat like the engine of Steve's car.

Steve needs to be able to do this for him.

"Just tell me what to do, Edd, I'll do it!"

"Someone's an eager beaver. You know how much you like this, Steve?" He places Steve's hands on his belly, Steve automatically starts palming, rubbing squeezing, irreverently, "yeah like that. I need you to show me how much you like it, but I need you to talk so nasty and mean to me. Need you to roleplay for me, Stevie. Think of it like D&D. You can do that for me, can't you, baby?" And he keeps grinding down on Steve, panting and so slutty and sexy that Steve's brain is malfunctioning.

"I can do it, Edd, just tell me how!"

"Mmm you're such a good boy, Stevie. What'd I do to deserve you?"

It takes so much coaching and reassuring, and many safe word talks and laughing fits later eventually they start to build up sense of each other and Eddie gets a scene like

Opening the door to his trailer, "Harrington?"

Steve pushing him back through the doorway, letting himself in, "Fucking hell, Munson. Look at you..." Looking him up and down.

"Can I help you?" He keeps himself calm as Steve starts to stalk in closer to him and crowd him.

"Yeah, I was, uh, looking for Dustin. He'd said you were having him over for dinner, but it looks more like you had him for dinner. You've fucking blimped, man..." He grabs the soft over hanging part of Eddie's belly that pokes out from under his shirt like a handle, giving it a rough shake and watching completely engrossed.

"Yeah, that's cause every time I fuck your favorite ex-girlfriend, she gives me a cookie."

"That's some big talk, Munson. How'd Nancy feel about having the smaller rack of you two? See you haven't upgraded from a starter bra yet, have you, big boy?" Steve shoots back, snaking a hand up to squeeze Eddie's chest, tweaking his nipple while the other rubs at wide soft hang of his belly.

"Jesus fuck, Stevie...

"Yeah, you like that, double-wide? Hey, quick pause. Is this working? Like does it need any fine tuning. Sorry, I'm trying to stay in character but I'm really in my head right now."

"You're doing amazing, Stevie. Please keep going, I swear I'm like a fucking faucet right now!!"

"Let's go test the structural integrity of your bed then, Munson."

"Allons-y, Big Boy"

Haha Joyce in the future, making sure to subtly feed info into the grapevine of their monster hunting conversational circles, subtly letting Steve know what nights she and Hop will be at what all-you-can-eat places, so not to have a repeat interruption of each other’s respective kinky date nights

And like whichever teenager is meant to give Steve the message from Joyce is always just like

"I don't know why I'm supposed to tell you this, but I'm just the messenger, Joyce says she and Hopper-"

"Jesus- Ok! Fine! Yes, thank you, message received. Haha. Don't worry about it. I need to... not be here, right now. Later friend!"

And finds an excuse to leave red-faced and hot
